I'm just about to begin my Taichi XE build and was wondering if adding a couple of 32GB Optane sticks would be of any benefit with the following configuration:

Windows 10 64 Pro
i7-7740X CPU
32GB DDR4-3866 RAM - will eventually be upped to 64GB
SSD RAID 1 boot drive
HDD RAID 10 data drive - these mechanical drives will eventually be replaced with SSDs
GTX 1080

Primary use of this machine is Adobe Premiere, After Effects and Photoshop - not gaming

Thanks!

Smile
